I finally found her grave- Calvary Cemetery Lincoln, Lancaster,Nebraska-
SEE ALBERT GAREY'S Biography by clicking on his name on family links.
MARY AND ALBERT, WERE KILLED BY A DRUNK DRIVER.She was killed instantly on Nov. 20- he died Nov. 22
when you read his bio- you will see how tragic it was.

Her obit states she was waked at her mother's home- which may be true- but no Garey attended- They were Catholic and the Garey's were Methodist.
The obit also states burial in Holy Sepulchre Cemetery, but she is in Calvary Cemetery.
It has literally taken me decades to find her.
Such a tragic story- they had been married for 12 years- no children.
If you look on the 1930 census you will see that they BOTH list both sets of their parents as being from Minsk, Russia!
Neither set of parents were from Minsk Russia. I think they did that because they were so mad at their parents for disowning them because they were of different religions and back then you did not marry outside of your religion.
